Paw Paw traveled to Big Rapids for the season opener and came home with a hard-fought 13-7 victory. Big Rapids struck first in the opening quarter, but from there, the Redwolf defense dug in. Neither team found the end zone in the second or third quarter as the game turned into a physical defensive battle.
In the fourth, Carter Buhl punched it in from 4 yards out to tie the game at 7. Later, Ryan Lasinski powered in from 3 yards to give Paw Paw the lead. Kalein Tate provided the spark all night, grinding out 135 yards on 21 carries while also making an impact defensively with 11 total tackles and a forced fumble.
With Big Rapids driving in the final minute and taking a shot at the end zone, Andrew Schaefer came down with the game-sealing interception, allowing the Redwolves to run out the clock.
